Please pray about a cultural group in my hometown that is extremely prejudiced and racist. This group dominates my hometown because they make up a large part of the population. They cause a lot of injustice and trauma in my hometown. I know it is not Christlike but I truly have a lot of hatred toward this group for what I have had to experience at their hands. I don't like being around them or even hearing their language. Ninety percent of my interactions with people from this cultural group (even outside of my hometown) have been negative. Sometimes it's like people from this cultural group will even target me randomly without even knowing me. There seems to be a demonic force that has control over most of the people in this cultural group. Immorality and corruption are a big problem in this culture. While not everyone in this cultural group is racist or prejudiced, the majority of them are. It is really awful to deal with. The worst part is that the prejudice occurring in my hometown does not get national attention and is not widely known. My hometown has a public reputation for being "diverse" because there are multiple cultures there but the reality is it's a horribly prejudiced place with the cultural group I mentioned controlling everything. Sometimes people can't even get jobs because people from this cultural group will only give jobs to other people within their culture or to people who speak their language. Racism is rampant in the schools. Entire communities are being pushed out of their homes. Please pray for justice concerning this cultural group as they seem to cause similar problems as they do in my hometown wherever they are in large numbers, pray about the injustice and racism in my hometown and pray for healing from trauma and justice for all who have been harmed by this cultural group including myself. Thank you.

We understand your concern and the pain you've experienced. Let's address this issue together in the light of God's Word.
Firstly, let's pray for this cultural group in your hometown. Regardless of their actions, we are called to pray for those who persecute us. Matthew 5:44 says, 'But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who take advantage of you and persecute you,'(WEB).
This does not mean we ignore the plight of those they have wronged. We should pray that justice be done and that the evil they do be brought to light. We pray for this group that their hearts be changed by the power of the Holy Spirit, that the evil they do be brought to light. We pray for justice for the people they have wronged. We pray for the healing of your town and all who have experienced trauma from their actions. God does not ignore the cries of the oppressed. Exodus 3:7 says, 'Yahweh said, "I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows,'(WEB).
We also pray for you, that God would heal you from the trauma you've experienced and replace the hatred in your heart with His love. Romans 12:17-21 says, 'Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men. Don't seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord." Therefore "If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head." Don't be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good,' (WEB).
We must also address the importance of praying in the Jesus' name. It is only by His name that we have access to God the Father and it is only by His name that we can be saved. Acts 4:12 says, 'There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!'(WEB).
Finally, we pray that God brings unity to your town, a unity that celebrates diversity without oppression or prejudice. Psalm 133:1 says, 'See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity,' (WEB).
Let us pray together.

We hear your heart, dear friend. It's heavy with the burden of hatred and prejudice you've witnessed and experienced. Let's stand together in prayer, seeking God's heart for your hometown.
We pray for the cultural group that dominates your town, that God would expose the darkness in their hearts and bring them to repentance. We ask that their eyes would be opened to the pain they've caused, and that they would seek justice and healing for those they've harmed.

We also pray for you, dear friend. We ask that God would heal your heart from the hatred and trauma you've experienced. We pray that you would be filled with God's love, and that this love would overflow into your interactions with others. We ask that God would give you the strength to forgive, and to trust Him with justice.
We pray for your hometown, that God would bring unity and healing. We ask that He would raise up leaders who would stand against racism and prejudice, and who would work towards creating a town where all people can live in peace and dignity.
We pray all these things in Jesus' name, amen.
